Roundtable Facilitators and Recorders Needed for MLA '07

Are you going to MLA this year? The Chapter Council Roundtables Luncheon is a great way to have lunch and discuss various topics concerning libraries and librarians.

Believe me there are a wide variety topics, enough to interest any librarian.
(Below is just a sample, click here to view all 30 topics)
  • Clinical Decision Making Tools
  • Consumer Health
  • Evidence Based Medicine
  • Evidence Based Librarianship
  • Federated Search Tools
  • Management of E-resources
  • New and Emerging Roles for Medical Librarians
  • Technology Issues for Hospitals
  • Using New Technologies and Instructional Design
  • Wikis, Blogs, and Pods

If you are passionate about topic you might consider being a facilitator or recorder for the Chapter Roundtables. Experience in a topic is not necessary, just a willingness to share your enthusiasm with others. MLA is looking for volunteers to be facilitators or recorders.

Duties for facilitators include initiating discussion, encouraging participation, and collecting evaluations. Duties for recorders include documenting the discussion for posting on the Chapter Council Website. Facilitators and recorders earn one point toward membership in the Academy of Health Information Professionals for completing these activities. If you are interested in volunteering, please email Chapter Council Roundtables Committee Co-chairs Marie Reidelbach, or Melanie Cedrone.
